(1 / 5) Flag as inappropriate - as a student, my views are important also. i disagree with a few things. first, administration makes a lot of poor, last minute decisions, certain teachers do things to students that are inappropriate, ranging from cursing and treating certain students unfairly because they dont like them or because of race, to looking down a female student's shirt. personally, my biggest problem is the sloppy, unprofessional administration. Of course there is more than just that. the students dont know how to act, and there is a lot of violence, both verbal and non-verbal. The majority of the teachers are really great though. and i like the options for lunch.

- This is a wonderful highschool. The students are well behaved, and the teachers and faculty all do a great job with them. The principal is an exceptional leader for the students.
